Louis Tomlinson Won't Face Charges After Paparazzo Fight

Last month, Louis Tomlinson was arrested after reportedly getting in a fight with a paparazzo at LAX. Initial reports alleged that the One Direction singer pulled the photographer down on the ground by his legs, hitting his head and back. Louis's lawyer, Martin Singer, later released a statement claiming that the paparazzo had provoked the celebrity, and that three other individuals were attacking his girlfriend, Eleanor Calder. Incidentally, another woman also spoke out about the incident, claiming that she was later harassed online after reports alleged that she was one of the people attacking Eleanor.

People is now reporting that Louis will not face charges as a result of this incident. However, Frank T. Mateljan III, spokesman for the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office, explains that the singer could still be charged over the course of the next year, if sufficient evidence were to arise. In a statement, Mateljan explained: "Each of the parties will be interviewed regarding the incident and advised of the law and ways to avoid similar incidences in the future. Typically there is no further action taken by our office after the hearing, though we do reserve the right to file charges up to one year from the date of the original incident should additional information or future actions require additional measures."
